17.E

18.F

19.G

20.B这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国暑假形成的原因，以及暑假放假时间长短的演变。16.A根据下面一句话中的because可知，这句应该是以Why提问的句子，故选A。17.E根据上下文可知，上文提到了暑假形成的原因，但是这不是唯一的原因，下文又讲述了其他的原因，故选E。18.F根据下文的在农场干活可知，这里指的是农村的孩子，同时也与下文的“cityschool”形成对比，故选F。19.G根据下文可知，城市的学校与农村的学校在放假时间上的意见是不一致的，他们的观点不同，故选G。20.B根据上文可知，现在暑假跟以前相比变化不大，以前平均170天，空格处讲述现在的情况，现在平均180天，故选B。【名师点睛】七选五解题策略：从意思上判断。在做题时最重要的是要读懂空白前后的句子，正确理解了这些句子后，根据意思的连贯性、逻辑性或者线索词从选项中选取正确答案。从词汇上锁定线索。要好好关注空白前后的名词和动词等，然后在选项中查找它们的近义词、反义词等。尤其在读不懂句子的情况下，利用这样的线索词寻找答案非常有效。从关联词切入。通常句子与句子之间经常会运用一些关联词表示过渡和衔接。我们可以通过这些关联词来判断句与句之间的关系。比如and，or等表示并列；but表示转折；because表示因果等。这篇文章的第一个题，空白后有一个because，因此我们可以判断与上文是因果关系，而且because常常用来回答why提出的问题，所以我们可以得出答案。三、阅读理解19.TheannouncementofOsamabinLaden’skillingbyU.S.NavySEALstouchedoffaseriesofemotionalreactionsaroundtheworld,fromjoytogrief.FormostAmericans,itpromptedatimeofrejoicing,amagnificentsenseofclosure,andafeelingthatjusticehadbeendone.ButforthosewhowerefollowersofbinLaden,therewasanger,heightenedfeelingsofrevenge(报复),andadeepsenseofloss.Howdowemakemeaningfromsuchamomentinhistory?Andhowdowehelpchildrenunderstandthedeepvaluesthatuniteusasanation?Thisisindeedateachablemomentforfamiliesandforclassroomsaroundthecountry.Reactionstomurdercanbeveryconfusingtochildrenbecausetheyarenotabletomorallyreasonlikeadults.Insteadofunderstandinghiskillingasanactofjustice,childrenmayinterpretitasanactofrevenge.Theycaninternalizejoyfulreactionstomean"Whensomeoneharmsmeormyfamily,itisokaytohurtthemback."Talkingwithchildrenaboutthiseventisanimportantlessoninmoraldevelopment.Adultscanhelpchildrenunderstandjusticeandrevengebytalkingaboutthevaluesbehindthesetwoconcepts.Therearestickyissueshere—andsometimestherearenoconcreteanswers!Gettingkidstoreflectonanddiscussmoraldilemmasisimportanttodevelopment.Justiceisunderstooddifferentlybydifferentcultures,dependingupontheirhistory.Atthecoreofjusticearecertainsharedvaluesaboutmoralrightness,fairness,andethicsthatifbreachedpunishmentwillfollow.JusticeisanintegralpartoftheAmericanlegalsystem,afoundationofhowourculturethinksaboutcrimeandpunishment.Justiceisabouthowouractionshaveconsequences.JohnStuartMill,aBritishphilosopher,suggestedthatjusticeevolvedfromtwonaturalhumantendencies:revengeandempathy.Humanshavenaturalempathyforpeoplewhoarehurt.Indeed,thehumanlossfrom9·11wasoverwhelmingtoeveryone,notjustthosewholostlovedones.Throughourabilitytoputourselvesintoanotherperson’splace,wefeelanaturaldesiretorevengeonthosewhohurtus.Thus,Millbelievedthelawsofjusticeevolvedfromthedifferencebetweenempathyandrevenge.Whatisthedifferencebetweenjusticeandrevenge?Justiceisundertakenandsupportedbylegitimatejudicialsystemsfoundedoncertainethicsandmorals.Itismeanttoberestorative.Ontheotherhand,revengeisoftendonetomakeotherssufferthesameorgreaterpainthanthatwhichwasoriginallyinflicted.Itcanbearguedthatthetypeofkillingdonebyal-Qaedaissteepedinrevengebecauseitisdesignedtoinflictthegreatestharmoninnocentpeople.Helpingchildrenunderstandthemeaningofjusticeanditsunderlyingvaluesisimportant.Itdevelopsachild’sabilitytodevelopskillsinmoralreasoning.Andithelpsthemdistinguishbetweenconceptssuchasjusticeandrevenge.Whentheyarefacedwiththeirownmoraldilemmas,theywillbeabletorespond.AneventlikebinLaden’sdeathandtheintenseemotionssurroundingtheeventof9·11aredifferentforeachAmericanhousehold.Talktoyourchildrenaboutyourfeelings.Askthemabouttheirs.PerhapstheyaretooyoungtorememberthedaywhentheWorldTradeCenterwasattackedandtheimmensegriefyoufelt.Tellthemaboutthatday.Talkaboutjustice—andtheconsequencesofouractions.Shareyourownmoraldilemmasandhowyouworkedthroughthem.CurrenteventspresentanopportunitytotalkaboutAmericanvalues.Itisalsoanoccasiontotalkaboutfamilyvalues.Howdoyourkidsexperiencetheconsequencesoftheiractionswhentheyaredishonest,selfish,ortreatotherswithdisrespect.Familiesshouldinitiateconversationsaboutvaluesandmoraldilemmasofteninachild’slife.Familieswhocreateopenenvironmentsfordialoguewithchildrenaroundvaluesandmeaninginlifenurturekidswhogrowuptoreasonforthemselves.Throughrespectfullisteningandconversationsaboutmoraldilemmas,youcanhelpyourchilddevelopintoacaring,sympathetic,engagedadult.65．TheexampleofbinLadenisraisedinorderto.A.defineaconcept B.introducethetopicC.bringaboutanargument D.definemoraldilemmas66．TheunderlinedsentenceinParagraph3indicatesthatchildren.A.areusuallyaggressive B.tendtogotoextremesC.havealackofsympathy D.mistakejusticeforrevenge67．Theunderlinedword"breached"canbereplacedby"".A.violated B.abused C.misunderstood D.abandoned68．Accordingtothelastthreeparagraphsparentsarerecommendedto.A.helpchildrenrealizelifeisfullofupsanddownsB.telltheirchildrentheirownreactiontomoraldilemmasC.sacrificefamilyvaluesforthesakeofAmerica
